DESCRIPTION
After arrival and settling down having a cup of tea, we give you a guided tour through the Garden of Nâm Living. Around 16:30 with the introduction, we will get to know each other more and tell our motivation of participating in this yoga retreat. Maybe you have questions you might want to ask. As a movement therapist, I strive for body-awareness to be created with an attitude of Awe and Wonder. In a 5 day Yoga intensive we will deepen the meaning of yoga and connection with ‘I’ and ‘World’. What does deepening mean? How to implement yoga in daily life? We will all find out on this journey together.
